    Most common Eureka 200/1400/1900/2000 upright?

    Paul, Paul--that's a good theory. I know the discount stores in Seattle sold some models with the letter prefix "WT". I thought it was because one of the bigger sellers was White Front. With Tools makes much more sense I think Eureka made annual changes to its models as signified by the...

    Eureka Question: 1400/2000/200 series

    Out of curiosity, before the 1400 series was introduced in 1974, would I be correct in thinking that the 200 series was sold alongside the more deluxe 2000 series?

    Eureka Model Ranges?

    Out of curiosity, does anyone have any other full-line Eureka upright advertisements like the one I shared (thanks OpelGTKarl)? Also, any ideas when it's from (I'm thinking it's 1972, based on newspaper advertising available.)

    Eureka Bag Question

    This may seem like a dumb question, but how important is it to use Eureka brand F and G bags? I want to say the brand I tend to buy most is DVC or Rubbermaid. I don't think my grandma ever bought Eureka brand bags either. Also, does anyone have photos of vintage Eureka brand F and G bags? When...

    Eureka 2059A

    Hi everyone! I just bought a Eureka 2059A vacuum, and I have these questions: 1. What was the original style of bag this vacuum came with? 2. What was Eureka's name for the shade of green it comes with? 3. When was this model introduced? Discontinued? 4. Does anyone have any advertising for it?

    Kirby Sanitronic 50 questions

    Hi! I have a few questions about my newest Kirby Sanitronic 50. It has a clear emblem on the headlight cover, and a stamping by the rear wheels of the number "65". Does anyone have any serial number ranges for these machines?

    Kirby 517, 1957...to polish, or not to polish?

    Bag So, the bag is a newer shake-out style, but with a Classic III clamp. The wheels work well, and I may polish it at some point.

    Compact C-2 Storage Ottoman

    Hi! I just bought my first Compact vacuum, a C-2, inside this nifty storage ottoman. The ottoman has seen better days, and will likely get reupholstered in heavy-duty restaurant-grade vinyl (the current covering doesn't seem like it would survive my size 13 feet). However, before spending three...

    Kirby 517, 1957...to polish, or not to polish?

    Thanks! Thanks! I just want to make sure that leaving it unpolished won't hurt it.

    Kirby 517, 1957...to polish, or not to polish?

    I just bought a 1957 Kirby 517 at an architectural salvage store in Kelso, WA. I plan to leave the original replacement bag on it, and am thinking I'll leave it unpolished--I cleaned it up, and I like the patina. I'm wondering what your thoughts on polishing vs. leaving a vintage Kirby...
